Is the return of Sharon Osbourne to the X Factor enough to freshen up the show?

Well yeah, take a look at Olly Murs, 1D, Little Mix, James Arthur.....

3 of the current top 40 are from talent shows. Meaning 37 aren't. That sounds pretty damning to me.

Yeah, I thought exactly the same as you. Anyways, I was talking bout Sharon which I was pleasantly surprised by her. I wouldn't miss the X Factor having said that...

I agree with marketing on that last point. Shows like the X-Factor tend to only create short term stars. Long term artists like Lady Gaga and Katy Perry come from other sources.

I think she definitely brings a more charismatic feel to the panel and on turn helps them to be fairly laid back about it as well the judges always have a laugh when Sharon's there you just can't let it go unnoticed be the way she reacted on the first night just sinking out of her chair onto the ground because of the person sings the lyrics in a bad tune and wrong manner! I mean if you take Sharon out and put someone like Bruce from strictly you don't get the same atmosphere, tension or audience "participation." Over all I would say Sharon should have been back a long time ago!!
